The United States is an oil producing country – we just need Joe Biden and Democrat politicians to stop standing in the way. Combined with our partners, we have immense energy production capacity.
We import 595,000 barrels of oil per day from Russia.

The Keystone XL pipeline would have produced 830,000 barrels per day.
Relying on Russian oil is a choice. And it’s a stupid one.
But what’s the one thing Biden didn’t mention in his speech today when he talked about lowering energy costs? Increasing American energy production. John Kerry may have given a clue as to why…
Climate change religious zealot John Kerry is worried that the first major ground war in Europe in 80 years & #Putin’s threat of nuclear consequences is getting more attention than his climate agenda

Petroleum and natural gas are Russia’s top exports, and the Russian government has used those exports to threaten our European allies. And on Biden’s watch, imports of Russian oil to the U.S. have spiked to their highest level in 11 years.
One the best ways to counter Putin would be to undermine his biggest leverage point with the full might of American energy production. All Biden needs to do is reverse his anti-U.S. energy policies.
Putin’s actions in Ukraine make clearer than ever – It’s time to unleash American energy.
